Mass is volume multiplied by the density. Volume is the amount of physical space an item takes up. The mass is the amount of atoms that are packed into that space.

NOTE: Mass is NOT the same a weight. Weight changes based on gravity. Without taking atoms off/out or adding them in to the same space mass will never change.

What is the difference volume and mass?

mass is weight. volume accounts for size. density of items change therefore masses are not the same as volumes


How do you calculate density when the volume is higher than the mass?

It makes no difference. Density = mass / volume. You divide the mass by the volume. If the volume is greater than the mass your answer will necessarilybe less than one, but that is still the correct answer showing the density in terms of the units used.

How could you tell the difference in density between the same size samples of quartz and galena?

You can tell the difference in density between quartz and galena by measuring their mass and volume. Calculate the density by dividing the mass by the volume. Galena has a higher density than quartz, so the sample with higher density is likely to be galena.
